An Italian Art Deco stained-glass panel, made from coloured glass joined with lead, dating to around 1930.
Description from the seller
Beautiful original 1930s stained glass panel in the Liberty / Art Deco style, made using traditional leaded-glass techniques.
Measurements: 137 x 40 cm (a slender size, perfect as a side window by an entrance or a light-filled partition)
Period: c. 1930
Technique: Leaded colored glass with original lead came, hammered, opalescent and embossed period glass.
Subject: An elegant compote dish / raised fruit bowl in hammered cobalt blue, holding a multicolored fruit arrangement (yellow, green, brown), topped with a wavy light-blue ribbon against a neutral hammered-glass background. Amber-yellow and opalescent-blue side borders.
Magnificent colors when backlit by the sun: deep cobalt blue, amber yellow, acid green and iridescent light blue.
Condition - COMPLETE TRANSPARENCY:
The panel is intact and ready to be installed. It is very fragile, however, so great care must be taken when handling it.
It has a few historical cracks in the glass that have been stabilized/repaired and remain visible in raking light, as shown in the close-up photos:
• Small crack line on the central blue ribbon (stabilized)
• Two hairline cracks in the side opalescent-blue panes
• One crack in the orange element at the base
No missing glass. The lead came is solid. These are typical flaws for a piece almost 100 years old and do not detract from its beauty or functionality. They are highlighted in the photos against a white background.
An authentic piece, not a modern reproduction, with a patina of age that only an original can have. Perfect for a carefully preserved restoration, farmhouse, Liberty-style villa, wine cellar, or professional studio, as shown in the illustrations.
Provenance: salvaged from a country villa in northern Italy.
Custom professional packaging + film + rigid protective materials.
Tracked shipping.
